Outstanding estate agents
Wow thank you so much Tim and and Frances. I’ve had a great experience working with you guys. Such a stressful process and was made so much easier having you along side me. The what’s app group which involved myself, you guys, Gemma the quick and efficient solicitor who guys recommended and dean the mortgage man who you did too and was also outstanding was all a great touch. So nice to be able to pop a question on and all keep each other updated as we go. TEAM WORK!!!!!
100% highly recommend!!!
Wish you all the best and every success with your business in the future
Thanks again!!!!!!!

Hi Lee. Thank you so much for your fabulous review. Having ourselves, our mortgage advisor and solicitor on hand, all on the same correspondence group really does makes a world of difference and turns what can be a stressful situation into something much more pleasant. The process of moving home really shouldn't be that complicated and when the lines of communication are open, it really is a far better experience for all involved. We are so pleased that you are now in your new home and hope you are settling in nicely. if you ever want to do it all again, you know where we are!
Excellent service
Excellent service from Tim and Frances when I purchased my property. Nothing was too much trouble, keeping me informed, answering any queries I had, even during the evening and at weekends. Also recommending a fantastic solicitor Gemma Bath.
Would certainly use them again.

Hi Julie. Thank you so much for your great review. We're pleased that it all went through smoothly and that you found us all to be communicative throughout the process. Working alongside another small independent solicitor insures that like us, you get that very personal touch throughout. We wish you all the best in your new home and whenever you decide to do it all again, you know where we are!
5 Star Service
Tim and the Team have been second to none throughout the whole experience. Always available to answer any queries or concerns we had. Cannot praise them enough and 100% would recommend them. Definitely deserve 5 stars. Thanks Tim for getting us over the finish line.

Hi Cindy. Thank you so much for your great review. I know this has been quite a journey but having found you the perfect home and arranging a house swap in the chain, it was so good to then be able to get you into your new home so quickly thereafter. We hope you are both settling in nicely.
Great experience from start to finish!
Tim and the team have been exceptional from start to finish. Tim contacted me within an hour of my enquiry and arranged a viewing straight away. We viewed the house that same week and fell in love, however we were dubious as we hadn’t put our house on the market. Tim put us in contact with the sellers and arranged for them to view our property, as he knew it was exactly what they were looking for. Long story short, they loved our property and we have essentially swapped! The whole process has taken only 8 weeks and we will be moving into our dream home within the next week. If it hadn’t of been for Tim’s advice and support, we wouldn’t be where we are now. The team were available for all queries via a personalised WhatsApp group, and Tim put us in contact with a great solicitor. We couldn’t recommend Mockford and Hunt enough!

Hi Abby. Thinking outside the box is something that we love doing and when it's meant that both your family and another of our clients dream move has come off, it makes it all so worthwhile. In this modern age of technology, we know that a bit of old fashioned estate agency can make all the difference. Also, working alongside a local independent solicitor that shares the same ethos as us, it just demonstrates what can be achieved in a swift timeframe when everyone puts the effort in. You have got yourself a beautiful home and we wish you all the best for your future there!
Outstanding
From Tim coming out & agreeing a sale price we sold in 4 days. What a team. We were all linked on a WhatsApp so we could contact each other easily. Also if you choose to have Gamma Bath as your solicitor Tim puts her on the group & wow Gemma was even contacting us on a Saturday & Sunday. Many thanks must go to Frances who worked tirelessly working up & down the chain arranging a completion date & keeping us updated.
If we hadn't sold so quick we would have never got our forever house in Hereford.
Please do not hesitate to use Mockford and Hunt a great team all round.

Hi Chris and Carol. Thank you so much for your glowing review. We're pleased that we were able to get you under offer so quickly and whilst there was a bit of a chain, we managed to all stay on top of it and keep pushing forwards to get it all through in a good timeline to ensure you didn't miss out on your new home. We have enjoyed seeing photos of your new place. The views look phenomenal. It's great to hear that you are settling in well. Please keep in touch.
Frances has been simply brilliant
Frances has been simply brilliant. Made us feel at ease, consistently responsive and quick at her job. Also Tim, although our conversation was quite short Tim's empathy made us feel happy and safe. We were sure that we were in the right hands. Despite the mortgage process being extremely complicated, things happened at rapid pace as Frances knew how to get the Job done. It was a pleasure. And Im intending on have them as our agents for life.

Hi Mark and Nayanthara. Thank you so much for your heart felt review. You have both been an absolute pleasure to work with and having waited for so many months for the seller to find, it was great to be able to push it through as quick as it was once we had a complete chain. We would be delighted to have you as our customers for life and we look forward to working with you again as well as your great banter! We hope you meanwhile settle in well to your new home and your new lifestyle here in Ashford.

Tim and Frances at Mockford & Hunt are a dream team. They actually care about people rather than only getting the sale.
I would never use anyone else in this area.
Thank you so much for seeing us through a stressful year and constantly keeping us optimistic. Thank you so very much 🙏🏼

Hi Lois, Thank you so much for your great review. We really felt for you when we learnt about your previous purchase falling through so close to exchange and yet you still vacated your own home to make sure you didn't lose your own buyer. Having secured a vacant property with us, we knew it would be pretty tough meeting the deadline of 31st March when we were only about a month away but we, including our fabulous solicitor Gemma pulled out all the stops to make it happen. All being on the same WhatsApp group has been a game changer to aid communication and we have found this to be a massive help in progressing things forward. We are so pleased to have got you through to completion in time. We hope you will be very happy in your new home and if you ever need us again in the future, you know where we are!
Takes the pressure off
The process of buying a house can be very daunting. I really didn’t know where to begin, so I booked a meeting with Tim Mockford to see what I needed to do. He immediately put me at ease and, even though I felt no pressure to go with them, I knew I would be in safe hands with Mockford and Hunt.
I was selling a shared ownership property, which comes with some added complications, however they were in constant communication with my housing association and they sold my apartment very quickly. Charlotte was a great sales lady!
I have been quite a fussy house buyer! So I took a while to find my perfect home. I never felt pressured to ‘hurry up’ and they were very supportive when a few of my offers were not accepted.
The thing that sets Mockford and Hunt apart from other estate agents is their communication. The WhatsApp group is a game changer as one of the team will always respond in a timely manner. Frances was great at dealing with my queries.
Due to their excellent communication and recommending an excellent solicitor, we were able to complete before the stamp duty increase.
I highly recommend them!

Hi Chris. What can we say, thank you so much for your comprehensive review. You have been great to work with and despite missing out on a few homes, we were so pleased that it worked out so well for you in the end with you securing the perfect property. We know that we had to pull out all the stops to get it all through in 8 weeks which given the property you were selling was a shared ownership property, can take a lot longer in most cases but with us chasing, you and the buyer being quick to deal with any enquiries and our solicitors being on the ball, it all came together. Congratulations and we hope you are very happy in your new home!
Helpful along the way
Tim, Frances and the team were really great. They kept in contact, with constant updates where necessary.
They were both helpful and knowledgeable from start to finish.
If you're thinking of putting your home on the market, trust Mockford and Hunt to look after your interests for you.
Thanks Guys.

Hi Gary and Agnieszka. Thank you very much for your great review. We are so pleased that you have been happy with our service and it's great news that you have now completed and can enjoy the next chapter of your lives up north. We really hope you will be very happy in your new home with your new lifestyle!
These guys are brilliant!!
Well it has been an experience. Tim and Frances have been exceptional. From the moment we met the approach felt different and after being on the market for 8 months with no hope of success, Tim changed the approach and we are just about to complete.
The level of of contact has been brilliant. Setting up a WhatsApp group and including the solicitor is genius. If required the mortgage broker is included as well.
At all times Tim and Frances were contactable and responsive. Queries were answered quickly, it felt like we had a friend guiding us through the process. I’m not sure anyone likes the process of moving so it’s about making it as sensible as possible. Mockford and Hunt have achieved this and made us feel valued as clients. They pushed the other side when needed and supported us even when the questions from the other side were constant. An excellent partnership and would trust no one else with selling a house. Brilliant service with excellent people.

Hi Mat and Rachel. Thank you so much for your heart felt review. This all feels like it's gone through in a whirlwind! From coming on the market with us at the end of January, having two viewings with two offers and then securing you your new home and working with our fantastic solicitor all to push it through before the stamp duty increase and here we are, 8 weeks from the point of offer and you have completed! We're so pleased for you both and can't wait to hand over the keys!
Excellent Service
Tim, Frances and the rest of team are best of the best, they have gone above and beyond for us from start to finish and have alot of patience. Keep up the good work and we would highly recommend them.

Hi Jane and Kev. Thank you so much for your great review. It was a pleasure to work with you both again! I know things were a bit testing with the top of the chain dragging their heels but with a lot of chasing between us all, we're delighted that it's now all gone through. We hope you'll be very happy in your new home for many years to come and you know where we are if you ever need us again!
A first time buyers dream.
Myself and my partner are first time buyers, we had little to no idea what to do going into our first purchase. I can honestly say I could not have asked better from both Frances and Tim. Tim was brilliant in the first stages of the purchase putting us at ease and giving up genuine advice, looking out for myself and my partner through every step. Frances has been a dream to deal with. Our purchase hasn’t been a smooth one but without Frances working her magic and keeping pressure on all the right people it just would not have happened. I cannot thank this team enough for the hard work and dedication they have to their field.
They have been a pleasure to deal with the entire time.
To any first time buyers these are people to be trusted and appreciated.
Once again. Thank you tim and Frances you’ve been fantastic

Hi Josh and Chloe. Thank you so much for your fabulous review. You have both been so lovely to work with and it's really good to hear you say how helpful we had been to you both as first time buyers. Buying a home for the first time can be quite a daunting experience and given it's not something that they ever teach at school, there are a lot of unknowns. We try and put ourselves in your shoes and give you the guidance that we would have liked to receive when we were buying our first homes. It was great to meet you both in person yesterday and we're sure you'll be very happy in your new home. Good luck with the puppy training and enjoy those beach walks!
Above and Beyond!

Hi Beth. Thank you so much for your glowing review. It's not always easy when you are involved in a chain as there are a lot of components that need to all come together as we well know. Through persistent chasing though, we are delighted to have helped you through to a successful completion. We hope by now you are settling in nicely to your new home. If you ever need us again in the future, you know where we are!
We wholeheartedly recommend Mockford and Hunt.
We cannot speak too highly of Tim and his team. He and Frances have been so helpful and supportive and they were always the first to inform us, either by phone or via the WhatsApp group, of any development throughout the process. They have always been on hand to answer any queries we have had and if they said they would get back to us, they did! We can wholeheartedly recommend them.

Thank you so much for your great review. It just goes to show that if everyone in the chain is pushing for a quick completion, it can happen. With ongoing updates and ensuring that paperwork and enquiries are dealt with promptly as well as using efficient solicitors, it makes the world of difference. Getting to exchange of contracts in 10 weeks with Christmas in between is a great result. We are so glad that you were happy with our service and we very much look forward to handing over the keys to you both on completion.

I highly recommend Tim and Frances who will actively sell you property and go the extra mile unlike the corporate agents. They are always available via a WhatsApp group and answer any query pretty instantly. They even offer help with a purchase via another agent. If I could ever face moving again Tim would be the first person I would call!
